Hello Stephen,

You can go from NP_ numbers to NM_ numbers using the 'refLink' table, 
then you can get location information from the 'refGene' table.  Both 
tables are available from our downloads server:

http://hgdownload.cse.ucsc.edu/downloads.html

Look for the assembly you wish to use, and then click "Annotation 
database" and look for the refLink and refGene files.

Alternatively, you can use the Table Browser 
(http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgTables) to get this information. 
Start from the refLink table:

group: Genes and Gene Prediction tracks
track: RefSeq Genes
table: refLink

then hit "filter: create".  Paste your list of NP_ numbers in the 
protAcc field and hit submit.  Now choose "output format: selected 
fields from primary and related tables" and hit "get output".  On the 
next page, choose the refGene table from the Linked tables section and 
hit "allow selection from checked tables".

Select the 'protAcc' field from the refLink section and the name, chrom 
strand, txStart, txEnd and any other fields you wish to retrieve from 
the refGene section.  Hit "get output".  You should get the list of NP_ 
numbers along with NM_ numbers and their positions.

I hope this is helpful.  If you have further questions, please contact 
us again at [email protected].
